Police say the rates of recidivism is extremely high and the only cost-effective measure is to better fund local libraries. "Our prisons are literally not built to contain such a man!"

@BigMuffN69 @Amoeba_Girl I think a sentient system (1) has a memory of experience (2) uses that updating memory to color the signal from its sensorium on a partial order and (3) takes action seeking better outcomes on that partial order. Evolution would favor (3) aligning with being healthy, cautious, and successful at reproduction but that’s outside the definition.

This whole report could have been triggered by mixing Hello Kitty branded wine and prescription medications.
